Google is a Public US company, and is in the main financed by US Pension Plans. It has an obligation to it's stockholders to run the business in an effective, competent and appropriate manner.

Therefore the following question begs to be asked; "Does the establishing of a $50 million dollar research center in Tel Aviv, paying extravagant salaries to Israeli workers, when such an operation could have been located in Bangladesh for example, at a fraction of the cost, fall within the remit of conducting business in an effective, competent and appropriate manner?"

In this sudden rush to Israel, Google is in good (depending on how you see the world) company. IBM, Sun Systems, Microsoft, Intel and others have all chosen Israel as a location in which to set up operations. Financially, this just does not make any sense. Furthermore, why is a country made up overwhelmingly of Russian immigrants, with an average IQ of 90 such an attractive destination for these corporate giants ?

Tel Aviv is the tenth most expensive city in the world and as previously stated, salaries are high, and IQ levels not so much so, whereas Bangladesh can offer qualified hi-tech workers at 1/5 of the price. It must be something of a 'bitter pill' for Americans to consider that a US pension is paying some Israeli's $150,000 a year salary, when if work must be "outsourced" the money could be more wisely spent elsewhere.

An additional abuse of the US by Israelis is how American Universities such as Harvard are being frequented by students from Israel, who take student loans, then after graduation, disappear back to their `homeland` never repaying the loan, again it is the US taxpayer who picks up the bill.

Tel Aviv is internationally recognized not only as one of the world's 'Prostitution Capitals,' but also a center for white slave trading in Russian Children. Additionally, it is a major player in drugs trafficking acting as a Trans-Shipment point for Heroin and Ecstasy.

So, to summarize, our Autoworker in Detroit has his pension invested for him in Google, which funds a massive internet monitoring operation in Israel, paying huge salaries and building up the infrastructure in that country. His taxes pay for Israeli students to study at Harvard, while he struggles to pay his bills and his children attend Community College.

Our suspicions were confirmed when a friend made an imaginary "anti-Jew" in a European forum and got his computer hacked.

Wow! Yesterday I held my toothbrush in my left hand and later a transformer blew in my neighborhood. This must mean that Oral-B and Mississippi Power Co. have teamed up to control the world.

It is always sad when someone you know (even if only through the message board) falls off into the black hole of conspiracy theories.

Harry, though we have had our differences, if you PM me your physical address I will send you my special tin foil hat, which should take care of this problem for you.

I read this post when I got up this morning and actually asked Annie to
